Rail Vehicles Maintenance Training Standards

Rail Vehicles Maintenance Training Standards

American Public Transportation Association (APTA) & International Transportation Learning Center

June 2010

​In response to the transit industry’s need for rail vehicles maintenance training, the Transportation Learning Center partnered with APTA, transit agencies and unions representing transit workers to develop these joint labor-management training guidelines and recommended training practices.

​The curriculum, courseware and training guidelines adopted by the group and contained in this Recommended Practice are designed to meet or exceed the licensing requirements of jurisdictions, which currently or in the future, may legislate professional licensure or certification for rail vehicle technicians.
